Chapter 91: The Falling Pioneers
"Is that so?" I said a little snorting, with the nod of the three.
I smiled a little, "But before that, you should know? That trust is the basis of our cooperation?" I was answered by a nod by the three.
"You hear that, sir?" My whisper.
Heavy air immediately enveloped our room, none of us making a sound. We all watched him, in silence.
"Go before you die, sir. Understand your area." My words while suppressing the magic aura that was circulating, made it quite heavy.
"Anashasya!" The two princes shouted in unison as his sister's body began to lose control.
Nauval immediately embraced Anastasya, surprised to see a black shadow evaporating from the nape of his sister.
‘Bingo!’ I murmured in my heart of course.
Alvan dumbfounded. Aware of what I had done, the boy immediately approached me at a speed that seemed to be grabbing my shirt collar.
While Nauval looked surprised and reflexively stood up. He wanted to prevent it, but it was too soon for him to stop.
"Alvans! Control your emotions!”
Just as thin as before his fist hit me in the face, another hand came opposite and fended it off for me.
"Fu fu ... It's very hard to hold back a young spirit like you." Uncle Ed said.
Alvan was surprised, still with his quick breath. He tried to think clearly.
In the meantime, I just kept quiet without taking any action.
"Thank you, Uncle Ed." I said as I watched the old man's body retreat.
He just nodded without losing his soothing smile.
Meanwhile, the teenager who wanted to hit me a while ago still stood up with emotion, "Tch! What do you mean by this, prince of Arcnight!?"
"Oh? Try saying that to your sister" I said lightly as I reached for the teacup in front of me.
"W-what!? Wh-sister?" Alvan turned to Anastasya who looked down in pain. His eyes widened, still unable to believe what he saw.
Something still seemed to evaporate from the nape of Anastasya who was bowed with sweat sweat sweat pouring out.
"I-this!? How come!? Don't-don't!"
"We understand, forgive us for our negligence .. It is not usual for Anastasya to act carelessly until he does not realize it" Nauval said in a respectful gesture.
"Tch! Thank you" said Alvan bowed.
Hearing the apologies from the two, I could only smile in moderation, "What's wrong." I said a little glancing at Uncle Ed.
"Did you find him, uncle?" Ask her.
The man straightened his body, slightly straightening the glasses on his nose for a moment before saying, "from the pattern, it's from the North, young master."
"That's so .."
"Ryan, Kai ... Y'all heard? Finish it."
After a while, the atmosphere became quite calm, or perhaps awkward.
The three brothers looked at each other.
"Ah, I'm sorry for all the mess that happened, but if possible, I think this deal we can talk about next time, Your Highness Prince Arcnight" Nauval said politely.
Hearing her words, I couldn't prevent her from smiling a little, "What's wrong, this will be over. You have exposed the condition of your country, even if only a glance, I can understand it," I smiled lightly and put back the cup.
Without losing my smile, I said, "Alright, you don't have to worry about me. Well, I was a little emotional earlier, but it wouldn't make me feel like someone who lost his clear mind and clenched his fists straight at someone" I said.
"Kuh! Damn" a complaint from someone who was disturbed.
"Ha ha ha! You are really interesting, your majesty!" Anastasya.
"Damn! I was emotional because of you!" Alvan protested with a reddened face.
"Ehem! All right, now it's not my turn to make a deal?" I'm polite.
The three looked at each other for a moment.
"Well, I don't think I need to explain at length the situation in my country. However, the miasma situation in my country has been going on for 17 years, and the barrier between my country and the outside world has been around for 6 years. It is not easy for my country to survive for 6 years without the help of the outside world. Even so, I can be sure my country is fine at this time. Right now, the miasma is starting to spread out, the barrier barrier will also not be able to hold it continuously right?"
"There's no reason to keep the barrier barrier" I said.
As expected of a crown prince, he quickly came to a conclusion, "Wait! What do you mean is you want to destroy the barrier, so!?" Nauval.
I nodded confirming his words.
"But I mean, isn't that not a hard enough thing for you? I mean, ahem! You should be able to solve this yourself. If you think about the reason, it makes enough sense for you to destroy it. I'm sure the empire won't ban this. Sooner or later, the empire would still act to destroy it. So, it shouldn't make any difference whether done first by you or done later by the empire right?"
Hearing her response, I nodded, "That's right. Then, what do you think because the empire understands, does not mean that the entire continent understands, right? This matter concerned the life of the entire continent. Inevitably, if it were to be done first by me, it would require the approval of the entire continent's kingdoms. If everything accepts, it is a great relief. But what if there was even one doubt? Even a rock can be eroded by a drop of water that keeps dripping."
"A small kingdom with great power is still a kingdom. We still have enemies in plain sight, even if it is from the human kingdom itself."
Hearing my words, the two princes before me could not hide his astonished expression. I myself am convinced of this, with all three being sons and daughters of the crown meaning that they also understand things like this.
"No, we won't help if it's like this" Nauval said.
Alvan and Anastasya were shocked.
"W-what do you mean brother!?" Anastasya seemed to be slightly resisting.
"We owe it to you, of course we will pay for it. After all, our ancestors have come into contact with your ancestral ancestors. Believe it or not, your kingdom has made an enormous contribution to supporting our kingdom. This debt of gratitude, always remembered by our father, because only, there is no doubt if we will be on your side like anything. It was a deep relationship when viewed from our country's point of view. But, as you know, it was just an unrealistic imaginary relationship in the eyes of the other kings. That's why, give me, no-give us a reason enough to realize our relationship" Nauval said with firmness in his eyes.
The reaction was as I imagined, so I just smiled, "If so, what do you want?"
"What would you do if the miasma spread? Then how do you convince the entire continent that this won't have a bad impact?"
‘Bingo!’ I muttered inwardly when I heard the question I had actually thought of before.
"It was easy ..."
Thus, with this a new covenant that changes the course of destiny has been agreed.
...□□□...
"Honor to his majesty" the white-haired man appeared to kneel before a bluish-black-haired youth. The one who looked up looked out the window.
"Say" said the young man.
"There are indications that this was Baal's interference" he said.
"Oh? Stop the investigation" he said coldly.
"Ba-what?" The man said surprised.
"The problem is not as easy as turning the palm, stop it now"
"Good!" He said a moment before he disappeared.
"Barto, Louisse, Edward, Alice .. Are you there?"
"Honor to your majesty" said the four on their knees.
"Give command to the entire army to stand by, the war is in front of us" Raka said with a sharp look.
"Good!" Speak the fourth while retreating.
The room became so quiet.
Tak. Tak. Tak.
The young man with the black mane was now seated.
His fingers calmly ran one chess piece in front of him.
Nah!
A pawn fell down, "You decide your destiny, don't expect to get away from me." Sharp speech.
